Description

The method of operation of natural gas engine and natural gas engine
Technical field
The present invention relates to the method for operation of natural gas engine and natural gas engine, in natural gas engine, have and do not use spark ignition system and efficient combustion system gas fuel being burnt by the compression ignition in the self-ignition fuel sources such as light oil.
Background technique
As shown in Figure 5, natural gas engine (CNG motor) 10X of prior art is, by making the gas fuel C compressed by piston 63 catch fire based on the spark ignition of the spark plug 62 being arranged at cylinder head 61, and this gas fuel C is burnt.
This gas fuel C is, by the gas fuel sparger (gas fuel injection apparatus) 35 arranged on the gas handling system path 65 be communicated with the firing chamber 64 formed between cylinder head 61 and the top of piston 63, spray in suction air A, and in the intake stroke of suction valve 66 valve opening, be inhaled into firing chamber 64 together with this suction air A.This gas fuel C catches fire by being configured at the electrical spark of the spark plug 62 of the central upper of firing chamber 64, although be conceptual view, burns like that as visible from the thin line in layeredly expanding.Then, pushing piston 63 in the expansion stroke of the expansion along with the combustion gas produced by this burning and doing work, discharges combustion gas (waste gas) G towards vent systems path 67 in the exhaust stroke of ensuing outlet valve 68 valve opening.
And, situation at the less mini engine of the diameter of low output, cylinder barrel (cylinder-bore), the phase by the more state of oxygen and gas fuel C hold incendive motor, in this layer combustion, gas fuel C burns towards the mode of firing chamber 64 integral extension with the approximate centre from firing chamber 64, therefore the power homogenization of pushing piston 63, pushing force Fp as a whole towards the central axis direction of piston 63, piston 63 to-and-fro motion swimmingly.
But, when the big-block engine that the diameter of height output, cylinder barrel is larger, the combustion gas G of high temperature flows out towards vent systems path 67 side of motor 10X, on the other hand, towards the suction air A of gas handling system path 65 side inflow low temperature, therefore uprise relative to the temperature of gas handling system path 65 side, vent systems path 67 side, especially, the part H represented by crosshatch in Fig. 6 easily becomes high temperature.Therefore, generation is referred to as the phenomenon of detonation (abnormal combustion), that is: gas fuel C not based on spark plug 62 igniting and catch fire, but contacted with this high-temperature portion H before entering combustion stroke and catch fire, the integral extension of burning from high-temperature portion H side towards firing chamber 64.When producing this phenomenon, burn from the side, a corner of firing chamber 64 towards integral extension, therefore the power of pushing piston 63 becomes uneven, pushing force Fp as a whole becomes the direction of inclination relative to the central axis direction of piston 63, piston 63 and cylinder 70 one-side contact and become cannot to-and-fro motion swimmingly, become the reason of engine failure.In addition, this detonation is also one of reason of pinking.
In addition, when reprocessing be carried out to waste gas at the NOx in order to reduce in waste gas by three-way catalyst, the emission-control equipment being carried with three-way catalyst is arranged at exhaust passageway reduction purification is carried out to the NOx in waste gas.This three-way catalyst catalyst performance under the air-fuel ratio state that oxygen is more reduces, and is therefore preferably the dense state of air fuel ratio that oxygen concentration in waste gas is lower.Therefore, burn with Theoretical combustion (burning according to theoretic mixture ratio: after burning, oxygen becomes the perfect combustion of zero), dense burning (burning that the oxygen concentration close to theoretic mixture ratio is lower) in cylinder., by the intake-air throttle valve being arranged at inlet air pathway, the suction air quantity sucked in cylinder is controlled for this reason, become and make required for gas fuel burning and sufficient oxygen and supply suction air, in cylinder, carry out Theoretical combustion.
Even if when this Theoretical combustion or dense burning, suck the mixed gas also easy burning unlike phase of air A and gas fuel C, therefore can take fire from the high-temperature portion H of vent systems path 67 side, become and easily produce detonation.
As mentioned above, when considering the high output of natural gas engine, maximization, dense burning, needing the problem solving detonation, in addition, also needing the spark plug solved in plug ignition mode to damage the problem of this spark plug fire damage because of heat.In addition, when the spark plug of spark ignition is a position, ignition source is less and be difficult to each circulation is reliably caught fire, and therefore there is the poor this problem of combustion efficiency.When combustion efficiency is poor, need a large amount of fuel to obtain required motor output, the heat produced also increases.As a result, there are the following problems: the problem of the various durability such as damage, the breakage of exhaust system component that caused by heat of the electrode part of spark plug easily produce specific fuel consumption, being caused by heat.
As the countermeasure for this problem, such as, described in the JP 2012-57471 publication of Japanese publication, the fuel control unit having a kind of internal-combustion engine is proposed, CNG (rock gas) fuel is sprayed towards inlet air pathway by CNG sparger (CNG fuel injection system), light oil is sprayed towards firing chamber by light oil sparger (light oil fuel injection apparatus), mixed by the light oil higher with compression ignition and as kindling material, CNG burnt in light oil, and changing the ratio of CNG and light oil according to pressure maximum during burning in firing chamber.
As shown in Figure 7, also using in this natural gas engine 10Y of light oil fuel, in the compression stroke that the mixed gas mixed gas fuel C and suction air A compresses, light oil fuel f is sprayed by light oil fuel sparger (light oil fuel injection apparatus) 69, this light oil fuel f spreads in firing chamber 64, and by the adiabatic compression of mixed gas, the temperature of mixed gas rises, when exceeding ignition (catching fire) temperature of light oil, by compression ignition, light oil fuel f takes fire, and the gas fuel C around this kindling material also burns.At this combustion start time, light oil fuel f spreads in firing chamber 64, therefore becomes multiple spot and catches fire and can prevent catching fire from vent systems high-temperature portion, burns in the entirety of firing chamber 64, applies roughly uniform power to the top of piston 63.Therefore, the pushing force Fp of pushing piston 63 roughly becomes the central axis direction of piston 63, piston 63 to-and-fro motion swimmingly.Thus, in this motor using light oil fuel and gas fuel, detonation can be prevented.In addition, owing to not using spark plug, so the fire damage of spark plug also can not be produced.
But, also using in this natural gas engine of light oil fuel, as shown in Figure 8, with prior art be compared with 2 ~ 8 diesel engine of carrying out operating with air excess coefficient lambda, be in the natural gas engine of the Theoretical combustion of 1 in air excess coefficient lambda, suck air quantity significantly to reduce, the compression pressure therefore also existed in cylinder reduces, and is risen also reduce this problem by the temperature of the mixed gas in the cylinder of adiabatic compression.Especially, when the underload operation range that motor output (horsepower) is less, when the minimizing with fuel accompany, in order to maintain Theoretical combustion reduce suck air quantity time, the reduction that there is the compression pressure in cylinder comparatively significantly and burning becomes unstable this problem, needs to solve this problem.
Related to this, described in the JP 2002-349241 publication of Japanese publication, the present inventor proposes there is a kind of diesel engine, in the diesel engine possessing the Exhaust gas purifying device of PM reliably for the purpose of continuous burning making DPF trap in the wider operation range in diesel engine, exhaust cam is formed as possess two sections that exhaust imports cam, or exhaust is set and imports valve, and the exhaust introducing mechanism being used for importing waste gas in intake stroke in cylinder is set, when delivery temperature region is low-temperature region, make air inlet shutter, exhaust throttle and the work of exhaust introducing mechanism, and make delivery temperature (temperature in cylinder) increase.
This diesel engine is only using the motor of light oil as fuel, but be also following motor: be used in the suction stroke of motor and a part for the waste gas of exhaust passageway refluxed in cylinder and the exhaust introducing mechanism making internal cylinder temperature increase, even if make suction air quantity reduce by intake-air throttle valve under the operating condition of motor is light-load state, the motor caught fire with also can making the fuel stabilization in cylinder.

Summary of the invention
The problem that invention will solve
The present inventor, in view of above-mentioned condition, obtains following opinion and expects the present invention, that is: by the exhaust introducing mechanism being used for importing in cylinder waste gas in intake stroke is assembled into natural gas engine, can solve the problem points of above-mentioned natural gas engine thus.
The object of the present invention is to provide the method for operation of natural gas engine and natural gas engine, the light oil fuel of ignition source is sprayed in firing chamber, in the motor of gas fuel injection apparatus that gas fuel is sprayed towards gas handling system path possessing, even if in low load operating state, Theoretical combustion or dense burning, also can reliably and stably gas fuel be caught fire, high efficiency burning can be carried out by less fuel and less suction air.
For solving the means of problem
Natural gas engine of the present invention for realizing object as described above is configured to, gas fuel is sprayed towards gas handling system path, by the light oil fuel of ignition source towards in-cylinder injection, spark ignition system is not used when the catching fire of gas fuel, and by the compression ignition being injected into the light oil fuel in cylinder, gas fuel being burnt, this natural gas engine possesses the exhaust introducing mechanism importing waste gas in the cylinder in intake stroke.
In addition, this exhaust introducing mechanism can adopt the following that formation having become known technology.The formation of one of them is, in the exhaust cam making exhaust valve operation, for in common exhaust stroke by the common cam profile of outlet valve valve opening, the exhaust that additional formation has the phase angle of roughly 90 ° imports cam profile, and enable this exhaust importing cam profile carry out work according to the operating condition of motor, in intake stroke, exhaust valve lift 1mm ~ 3mm degree is made its valve opening thus, make in cylinder thus and vent systems communication, in intake stroke, import waste gas.
Another is configured to, be arranged through the exhaust importing valve that the o different from outlet valve carries out the work of open and close valve, operating condition according to motor gives drive singal to this o, makes exhaust import valve thus and promote and make its valve opening in intake stroke.Thus, make in cylinder and vent systems communication, in intake stroke, import waste gas.
In addition, in the present invention, without the need to being defined in above-mentioned two formations, even if formation in addition, as long as have the formation of the function importing waste gas in the cylinder in intake stroke.
According to this formation, by being vented the work of introducing mechanism, the high-temp waste gas of vent systems path can be made thus in intake stroke suitably to reflux in cylinder, and after burning is tight, the waste gas of high temperature is imported in cylinder, therefore, it is possible to make the temperature of the mixed gas of light oil fuel, gas fuel, suction air and the waste gas in cylinder rise.In this exhaust imports, owing to importing the waste gas of high temperature after burning is tight, thus with via possess cooler for recycled exhaust gas EGR passage and import the EGR gas of temperature step-down situation compared with, internal cylinder temperature rising Be very effective becomes large.
As a result, just stably can carry out compression and combustion by a small amount of light oil fuel, the burning of this light oil fuel stably can also be carried out the burning of gas fuel as ignition source.Thus, can realize the burning that combustion efficiency is good and stable, in addition, can reduce the amount for the light oil fuel caught fire, therefore the consumption of light oil fuel is a small amount of.In addition, as a whole, the heat produced due to the burning of fuel tails off, and the heat therefore towards vent systems flow channels reduces, and the fire damage caused by this heat reduces, and therefore the durability of the exhaust system component of motor improves.
In addition, by being vented the work of introducing mechanism, even if internal cylinder temperature also can be made promptly to heat up when motor becomes the starting of low temperature, therefore startability becomes good.And, even if start time also can be started by a small amount of light oil, therefore by start cause misfire and the discharge capacity of unburned hydrocarbon (not firing HC) also significantly reduces.Further, internal cylinder temperature can be made promptly to heat up, therefore, it is possible to accelerate smoothly.
In addition, by utilizing the exhaust introducing mechanism making the temperature in cylinder improve, even if under underload operating condition, also the temperature in cylinder can be maintained the easily ignitable temperature of light oil, stable catching fire can be measured by less light oil, flameholding can be made, therefore, it is possible to reduce engine luggine and improve riding comfort (manoeuvring performance) by a small amount of fuel.In addition, the exhausted air quantity of light-load state can be reduced.
Therefore, when have employed bypass is set on exhaust passageway and the waste gas cleaning system of the DPF compared with small capacity of light-load state is set, the capacity of the DPF being arranged at bypass can be reduced and carry out miniaturization, therefore, it is possible at higher this small-sized DPF of partial configuration of the temperature closer to engine main body, being measured by the light oil PM produced that burns in the waste gas discharged in air can be reduced.In addition, in the formation of this exhaust treatment system, under the high capacity operating condition that delivery temperature is higher, control for not by bypass by the DPF that the capacity of the back segment being arranged at exhaust passageway is larger, therefore exhaust resistance is less and purify coal smoke by DPF.
Be configured in above-mentioned natural gas engine, the amount of the light oil fuel towards in-cylinder injection is set to the light oil fuel amount of idle running in whole operation range of motor, the increase and decrease of motor output is carried out by the increase and decrease of the amount of gas fuel, when so forming, in the diesel engine of light oil fuel possessing this exhaust introducing mechanism, also originally stable under idle state burning can be maintained, therefore by the burning of this light oil is used in catching fire of rock gas, thus when with when changing compared with the gas fuel control such with the ratio of light oil fuel according to engine operating status, reliably compression ignition can be carried out to light oil fuel by constant this very simple control of light oil fuel amount, can with the amount of gas fuel independently, gas fuel is burnt well with minimum air inflow combustion efficiency.In addition, the air fuel ratio of waste gas, air excess coefficient lambda, oxygen concentration are measured, carry out theory than judging in the mode becoming Theoretical combustion, and the aperture of the intake-air throttle valve in this situation is controlled.
Thus, exhaust gas temperature can be improved the amount that suction air quantity is few compared with the ratio of fuel quantity, therefore, it is possible to improve the exhaust-gas purifying performance being arranged at the emission-control equipment (after-treatment device) of exhaust passageway.In addition, exhausted air quantity also reduces the few amount of suction air quantity, and therefore the capacity of waste gas cleaning plant is less, can correspondingly miniaturization.
Be configured in above-mentioned natural gas engine, under the operating condition of work of carrying out above-mentioned exhaust introducing mechanism, and control with the air inlet restriction based on the air inlet shutter being arranged at gas handling system path, when so forming, can while this exhaust introducing mechanism work, air inlet shutter is made to carry out throttling towards the work of valve closing direction to air inlet, suction air quantity (amount of new gas) is made to reduce to the amount can carrying out Theoretical combustion, and the pressure of gas handling system passage side can be made to reduce, therefore, it is possible to more efficiently make waste gas reflux in cylinder, internal cylinder temperature can be made to increase further, combustion efficiency can be improved further.
In addition, in the diesel engine making light oil burn of prior art, usually phase is carried out, air inlet shutter (intake-air throttle valve) is not therefore set, but in the present invention, in order to improve the thermal efficiency further, needing to make gas fuel carry out Theoretical combustion or dense burning to carry out throttling to suction air quantity, therefore this air inlet shutter is set.This air inlet shutter is utilized as assist and imports waste gas in cylinder.
In addition, be configured in above-mentioned natural gas engine, under the operating condition of work of carrying out above-mentioned exhaust introducing mechanism, and control with the air inlet restriction based on the air inlet shutter being arranged at gas handling system path, when so forming, when making exhaust throttle carry out throttling towards the work of valve closing direction to exhaust, the pressure of vent systems passage side uprises, the waste gas of vent systems passage side is easily refluxed in cylinder, capacity of reflux can be made to increase, ascending effect in the temperature in cylinder can be improved further.
